A scientist begins an experiment with a culture of 5 bacteria cells. Every hour, the number of bacteria cells triples. Which equ

ation can be used to represent the number of bacteria cells, y, as it relates to time in hours, x?
y = 5 x
y = 3(5) x
y = 3 x
y = 5(3) x

The answer is 5(3)^x because tripling something means the base must be 3, which leaves the 5 to be the principal value.

Graph the system of equations. Then determine whether the system has no solution, one solution, or infinitely many solutions. If
natima [27]

Answer:

  d)  one solution; (4, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

It often works well to follow problem directions. A graph is attached, showing the one solution to be (4, 1).

_____

You know there will be one solution because the lines have different slopes. Each is in the form ...

  y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

The first line has slope -1 and y-intercept +5; the second line has slope 1 and y-intercept -3. The slope is the number of units of "rise" for each unit of "run", so it can be convenient to graph these by starting at the y-intercept and plotting points with those rise and run from the point you know.

The area of the figure is 104.52 sq inches

<h3>How to determine the area of the figure?</h3>

In the complete figure, we have:

1 Rectangle: Base = 8 in and Height = 6 in

2 semicircles: Diameter = 6 inches

The area of the figure is

Area = Area of rectangle + Sum of Areas of semicircles

This gives

Area = Base * Height + 2 * π(d/2)^2

This gives

Area = 8 * 6+ 2 * 3.14 * (6/2)^2

Evaluate

Area = 104.52

Hence, the area of the figure is 104.52 sq inches

Write an equation for the circle with endpoints of a diameter (9, 4) and (-3, -2)
inysia [295]
If the diameter is at (9,4) and (-3,-2), then the center of the circle is the midpoint of that segment.

and since we know that the radius of a circle is half of the diameter, whatever long that diameter segment is, the radius is half that.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{middle point of 2 points }&#10;\\\\&#10;\begin{array}{ccccccccc}&#10;&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&&(~ 9 &,& 4~) &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&&(~ -3 &,& -2~)&#10;\end{array}\qquad&#10;%   coordinates of midpoint &#10;\left(\cfrac{ x_2 +  x_1}{2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{ y_2 +  y_1}{2} \right)&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\left( \cfrac{-3+9}{2}~~,~~\cfrac{-2+4}{2} \right)\implies \stackrel{center}{(3~,~1)}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\&#10;~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}&#10;\\\\&#10;\begin{array}{ccccccccc}&#10;&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&&(~ 9 &,& 4~) &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&&(~ -3 &,& -2~)&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{(-3-9)^2+(-2-4)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{(-12)^2+(-6)^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{180}\qquad \qquad \qquad radius=\cfrac{\sqrt{180}}{2}

\bf -------------------------------\\\\&#10;\textit{equation of a circle}\\\\ &#10;(x- h)^2+(y- k)^2= r^2&#10;\qquad &#10;center~~(\stackrel{3}{ h},\stackrel{1}{ k})\qquad \qquad &#10;radius=\stackrel{\frac{\sqrt{180}}{2}}{ r}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;(x-3)^2+(y-1)^2=\left( \frac{\sqrt{180}}{2} \right)^2\implies (x-3)^2+(y-1)^2=\cfrac{(\sqrt{180})^2}{2^2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;(x-3)^2+(y-1)^2=\cfrac{180}{4}\implies (x-3)^2+(y-1)^2=45
